Hand Safety is your comprehensive guide to understanding, preventing, and treating hand injuries, a surprisingly common issue impacting both workplace productivity and overall quality of life.

This book highlights the hand's complex anatomy, explaining how its intricate network of bones, muscles, and nerves makes it vulnerable.

 
The book advocates for a proactive approach to hand safety, emphasizing that many injuries are preventable with the right knowledge. The book begins by introducing common injuries such as cuts, burns, and sprains, and then systematically explores risk factors in various environments. It focuses on practical preventative strategies, including the use of protective equipment and ergonomic principles, and provides detailed guidance on first aid and medical treatments.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"The Red Tent" by Anita Diamant tells the story of Dinah, a woman whose life is briefly mentioned in the Bible. The novel explores the traditions of ancient womanhood, family honor, and the impact of male-dominated societies on women. Told from Dinah's perspective, it reveals the untold stories of her mothers and grandmothers in the red tent, a space for women’s gatherings and rituals. Dinah's life is shaped by love, betrayal, loss, and the complex dynamics of her family. The story follows her journey as she seeks to find her own path, dealing with the consequences of her brothers' actions, and ultimately finding her own voice and strength in a world that often seeks to silence women.

999 Inside Death Row in the...

Arnaud Gaillard

On death row, the poorest and most numerous, with no family and no decent lawyer, are sometimes executed before all their appeals have been exhausted. Their fate consigned to modest prison cemeteries. In Texas, the number engraved on the cement stone begins with 999.
Out of 50 American states, 34 still have the death penalty. Why and how? The author's investigation took him to California, Utah, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi and Pennsylvania. A human immersion into the heart of American society and its judicial system, through encounters with death row inmates, lawyers and victims' families.
This fascinating book finely deconstructs the American myth of fair and infallible justice—from the deplorable conditions of confinement to daily abuse, from random legal recourse to political and judicial manipulation. More than just a sentence, the death penalty appears to be torture with many faces. And in an America on the move, there are signs that abolition is on the way. 
999, is the fruit of a fact-finding mission carried out by the French association, Ensemble contre la peine de mort (ECPM), with financial support from the European Union.
